All got rich by selling goods or services. Yet, you want to show us you are rich by the things you buy? You will remain on level one forever, because any fool can buy. Only the wise can sell!"-Reno Omokri's post on X-platform (2024).

"DO NOT DIE UNNECESSARILY"
"Living abroad, away from your home country has its subtle challenges that can cost you your life. Many people are dying unnecessarily.
Immigration problems, unemployment, bills, loneliness, low mood, school fees, studies abruptly terminated, relationships breakdown, pressures from your family back home, and lack of help from the people here.
With all these, you may not have time to pray, study the Word, and go to church. Believe it or not, there are also spiritual attacks and you need spiritual and emotional support. You also need spiritual mentors.
Many people are dying prematurely due to several challenges that they are battling alone. The support you get from the religious community is invaluable.
I say this with love, even if you are not religious, go to church. Loneliness kills.
Also, with my experience with some students and skilled workers recently, a lot are losing their minds. The universities are callous by terminating their studies abruptly and some employers are bringing workers in with no work and no wages for them.
So, network to stay alive. All the best."-Dele Olawanle's post on X-platform (2024).

"Stop preparing yourself to live in the world that your parents lived in. That world no longer exists again. Go to school for sixteen years and then acquire a degree that can no longer decree? When your parents were your age, they had to get movies from video clubs. You get movies from your phone through Netflix. Times have moved beyond your parent's idea of success. Every single thing you learnt in school for 16 years, can be sourced in a few seconds by a Google search. So, don’t let your degrees make you arrogant. Don’t think it guarantees you success. The world has changed. Skills now matter more than many degrees. A man with a Master’s degree in Literature, History, or any of such liberal arts is not in as high demand as a fashion designer, a coder, a web designer, AI technician, blockchain tech, a skilled motor mechanic, or even a farmer in today’s world. It sounds brutal. But that is because it is true."-Reno Omokri's post on X-platform (2024).

"Control your time by controlling how, when, and where you make money. Invest your money in something that yields compound interests so you don't become a compound fool when you retire. Salary is medicine for managing the disease of poverty. It can’t cure it. Only your own business can cure poverty. Poverty is not just about money. Time is more valuable than money. If another man controls your time, you are poor even if you earn much."-Reno Omokri's post on X-platform (2024).

"Plan your life. If you don’t plan your life, you may end up having the future that you don’t want."-Dele Olawanle's post on X-platform (2024).
